Prior to that time,it was known as WVHF "Stereo 93", which had an adult contemporary format. The station was assigned the WGIE call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on September 27, 2002.[1] WGIE joined the Froggy Country Network in September 2002. The Froggy Country Network now covers 11 counties in Northern West Virginia.
